Band History
Since forming in January 2005, The Rocketboys have gone on several smaller regional tours, expanding their reach into the Midwest and Southern states. Most recently, The Rocketboys performed at Austin City Limits Festival after they won the Dell Lounge’s 'Sound and the Jury Contest'. They have also played such festivals as Cornerstone Music and Arts Festival, Northgate Music Festival, and the South Padre International Music Festival. The Rocketboys have released two studio EPs and one live DVD/CD package. South Plains EP was released in summer 2005, and showcases the early days of the band as they were establishing a songwriting niche. Live In Levelland, was released in summer 2006, and portrays the bridge from their earlier days to their more recent compositions in Sing, Bird, Sing, the most recent EP by The Rocketboys. This new album represents most accurately the band’s new music.
